Full Description
PRN 45808
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the construction of a new stable block, shelter, hay store, service trench and septic tank on land at Church Lane, Alvingham. The watching brief identified a steep-sided 'U-shaped' ditch orientated approximately northeast to southwest. The ditch contained frequent large and small charcoal fragments, angular limestone lumps, three fragments of domestic animal bone and six pieces of fired clay. This material appears to have been a dump of waste, much of it from burning. Datable material was not retrieved from this ditch. However, it is possible that the ditch may be associated with earthworks of the former Gilbertine Priory (PRN 41255) situated to the north and east of the site {1} {2}
